Lemmy.world still discussing if they want to defederate from an instance taken over by exploding-heads.
An instance that includes such gems as
CW Transphobia, Homophobia
Strange pattern emerging from lemmy.world with an admin advertising their business in the adhd community, allowing virulently Islamophobic atheistmemes community and now repeating the exploding-heads (we have to patiently discuss blocking the instance) course of action instead of a preemptive defederation, it is their last resort though.
The post on lemmy.world discussing it as well: https://lemmy.world/post/2680147
As of this post the blocked instances are here

Fuck them all.
Lemmy.world admins are obviously fascists. The fact that they pearl-clutch over defederating Nazi instances while defederating socialist instances without a second thought proves this.
my theory is that they begrudgingly keep lemmygrad around because it at least reinforces libs’ ideas of what commies are like aesthetically (engaging with our ideas is of course not in the cards), whereas hexbear is at times more aesthetically inviting to libs, and unserious, and in that way can serve as a pipeline for different types of people to learning that hey, maybe US hegemony is actually a bad thing, and on from there… Hexbear is much more ideologically consistent than r/cth ever was but it still leaves enough wiggle room to serve as a radicalizing force I think, which is what scares our scratched friends over at lemmy.world
🥰
They said it was because hexbear was pushing an ideology and therefore had nothing of value to add to the conversation
As opposed to liberals who preemptively ban forums so that people won’t get exposed to anything anti-nato. No ideology there.
This site is not advocating violence (like plenty of left groups do) and it’s not instigating bigotry (you’re allowed to make your own thoughts and opinions.) What your advocating for is basically censorship and you’re trying to turn this place into another far-left Reddit hell hole.
Lol. Lmao even.
If it’s as bad as it sounds from the quotes I read, then it should definitely be defederated from. Any instance peddling hate and/or propoganda needs to be defederated immediately. They need to be denied audiences.
I expect this person think they are a completely rational actor and not affected in the least by ‘propaganda’. Now, we need to report on our wholesome chungus Ukrainian patriots who have those silly tattoos and worship literal fucking nazis as cuddly friendos who love cattos. It is only propaganda if it goes against the imperial core corporate media.
Any instance peddling hate and/or propoganda
Ban news and politics communities too then. What the fuck do these people think propaganda is? Also puting hate on the same level as spreading of ideas is absurd.
So what’s the deal with exploding heads? I was familiar with it a year ago and dismissed it because it had nothing except thousands of news posts by the admin. And that wasn’t just one glance, that’s all it was for a while, and basically the only place that federated with it died before the big reddit exodus.
Did it actually get an audience of anti-vaxxers and become non-trivial?
I don’t understand? What more do you want? They have always been nazis who are smart enough to try and barely hide their “power level”.
